The Oklahoma Office of the Attorney General is currently accepting applications for the 2025 Safe Oklahoma Grant Program. Established in 2012, this program is funded by an annual appropriation from the state legislature and aims to provide local law enforcement agencies and sheriff's offices with additional resources to address violent crime across Oklahoma. The program's core mission aligns with public safety and crime reduction within the state, directly supporting the Attorney General's efforts to ensure safer communities. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are local law enforcement agencies and sheriff's offices throughout all counties in Oklahoma. The impact goal is to decrease violent crime within their respective jurisdictions. This is achieved by offering resources that help cover overtime costs for officers, fund technology upgrades, enhance analytical capabilities, and support community partnership projects focused on preventing youth violent crime. The grant's duration is one year, from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2025, allowing for focused, short-term interventions and improvements. The grant program prioritizes several strategies for decreasing violent crime, as outlined in 74 O.S. § 20k(B)(1)-(5). These include focusing on intervention and enforcement through increased staffing resources with overtime funds for evidence-driven approaches like directed patrols and "hot spot" policing; increasing technological capacity with purchases such as crime-mapping software and GPS technology; enhancing analytical capabilities for crime trend analysis and data-driven strategies; engaging with community partners to develop projects preventing violent crime, including drug enforcement and youth violence programs; and increasing direct services to crime victims by improving accessibility and awareness of support. The expected outcomes include a measurable reduction in violent crime within the participating jurisdictions. By funding increased patrols, technology upgrades, and improved analytical and community engagement efforts, the program anticipates a direct positive impact on community safety. The theory of change behind the Safe Oklahoma Grant Program is that by providing targeted financial resources to local law enforcement, these agencies can implement specific, data-driven strategies and foster community partnerships that will effectively deter and reduce violent crime, ultimately leading to safer communities across Oklahoma.

The Maine Department of Labor (MDOL) is offering a grant program rooted in the belief that a career is essential for prosperity and economic stability for Mainers. This initiative aligns with the department's mission to help individuals chart their economic future. The grant aims to support tribal communities in connecting to employment, training opportunities, and retaining jobs. This Request for Applications (RFA) seeks to partner with tribal communities to address basic needs, engage individuals disengaged from the workforce, and support employment or training opportunities. The target beneficiaries for this grant are Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized), Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments), and non-profits with demonstrated experience and success in serving tribal communities. Applications demonstrating partnership with specific tribes—the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians, the Mi’kmaq Nation, the Passamaquoddy Tribe, and the Penobscot Nation—are preferred. The impact goals are to address basic needs that hinder employment or job retention, and to connect disengaged individuals with workforce opportunities. The program's priorities and focuses include addressing basic needs not effectively met by existing programs like DINAP, WIOA Adult, Dislocated, Youth, or National Emergency Grants. This can encompass assistance with car repairs, childcare, housing issues, uniforms, broadband access, or other necessities for obtaining or retaining employment. Another key focus is to connect with individuals disengaged from the workforce who are not currently supported by existing DINAP, WIOA, or Department of Labor (DOL) programs. The expected outcomes include increased employment and job retention among tribal community members, and improved access to essential support services that remove barriers to workforce participation. The program anticipates making two to four awards, with a total funding of $500,000, and individual awards ranging from $75,000 to $250,000. The anticipated period of performance is September 2024 to September 2026. Measurable results will likely involve tracking the number of individuals assisted, job placements, job retention rates, and the types of basic needs addressed through the pilot projects.

The Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE) is offering grants aimed at minimizing stormwater pollution through the ongoing maintenance of green infrastructure (GI). The core mission of this grant program aligns with environmental protection and sustainable urban development by actively preserving existing GI practices. The grant seeks to ensure the long-term effectiveness of these installations in managing stormwater, directly contributing to a healthier environment in the District of Columbia. The primary target beneficiaries of this grant are the residents of the District of Columbia, who will benefit from reduced stormwater pollution and an improved local environment. Additionally, local District residents, including Returning Citizens, are targeted beneficiaries through the creation of sustainable employment opportunities in GI maintenance. The overarching impact goal is to achieve cleaner waterways and a more resilient urban ecosystem by consistently maintaining approximately 400 GI practices installed by District government agencies. The grant prioritizes providing excellent routine maintenance for 400 GI practices installed by District agencies. A secondary, but equally important, focus is on fostering sustainable employment for local District residents, including Returning Citizens, within the GI maintenance sector. This includes providing training to a local workforce. Furthermore, the program aims to cultivate stewardship and maintenance support opportunities within communities, encouraging local engagement and responsibility for environmental assets. Expected outcomes include a significant reduction in stormwater pollution, evidenced by the effective operation of maintained GI practices. Measurable results will include the annual maintenance of approximately 400 GI practices and the successful training and employment of local District residents in GI maintenance roles. The program's theory of change posits that by investing in both the physical maintenance of green infrastructure and the human capital required to sustain it, the District can achieve lasting environmental benefits and create valuable socio-economic opportunities.
